Man Utd boss Giggs: Rooney and Van Persie can co-exist

Giggs believes the two star strikers already on the books should be persevered with.

"They are both good players, and as a player you'd want to see them in front of you, as a midfielder definitely because you'd have so many options," he said. "I believe that good players can play with each other.

"I don't think there is a rivalry between them. They get on really well. I don't think it's about [a manager having] favourites."
